Lastly, Kabichandra Kalicharan Pattnaik Rachana Samagra, a digital compilation by Srujanika of Bhubaneswar which contains files and folders on his writings, letters, manuscripts as well as his collected works in the nature of plays, bhajans, jananas and children songs is the most valuable source for studying this legendary musician and playwright. We are grateful to Srujanika for this great endeavour in highlighting a marker of Odia cultural identity.
